Julie Shank, NMLS 1733485 Spoiler alert: I’ve moved…a lot. Montana taught me how to drive any motorized vehicle on a snowy mountain pass, shoot guns, and withstand extreme temperatures.

mortgage + finance strategist
📍AR, AZ, CO, ID, OR, TX, WA

I help people make sense of mortgage and finance options without the BS, pressure, or one-size-fits-all advice. I was born and raised in Dallas, Texas before moving to the beautiful big skies of Montana for a couple of years in High School. I then spent a decade in Colorado, which taught me how to get better at driving in the snow, explore

the beauty of tiny mountain towns, and learn how to navigate single-motherhood. After graduating from the University of Colorado, my daughter and I found ourselves in the breathtaking Pacific Northwest. We spent 11 years in Olympia, Washington where we learned the joys of hiking the rainforested mountains, appreciating sunshine, and getting excited that “the mountain is out!” It’s also where I gave birth to my youngest daughter, where I became deeply entrenched in the military community, and where I became a loan officer. While my home is now back in the slow, country life of small town Texas, I spend many, many weeks every year in both Colorado and Washington. I have a deep passion for helping people achieve the dream of homeownership without regard to their income or social status. I’m like a dog with a hambone when helping my clients get the best home financing for their situation. Navigating mortgages, finance, and the home-buying process are far too often confusing and overwhelming, but they don’t have to be. I make it my personal mission to eliminate confusion and ensure a peaceful, educational process from the first phone call or text message to the closing table. There’s no shortage of loan officers or companies who will sell you on a loan. I’m determined to get you the RIGHT loan, of your choice, for your unique situation. Working in the mortgage industry requires a strong, powerful presence and a willingness to be relentless in the pursuit my clients’ goals. I vow to be an unparalleled ally in your corner. The process will be positive, educational, and always centered on you and your family. In the end, that’s what all of those years of experience add up to: learning how to take my clients from Point A from Point B, even if there’s no roadmap to get started. Everything is figureoutable.

Today isn’t about long weekends, mattress sales, or an extra day off work.

It’s about remembering the men and women who never made it home.

After more than 12 years as an Army spouse, I’ve seen firsthand the sacrifices military families carry long after the uniforms come off.

The missed birthdays. The deployments. The reintegration. The uncertainty military families quietly learn to carry every single day. The invisible wounds they live with for the rest of their lives.

And as a Military Mortgage Specialist, I’ve had the privilege of helping veterans and military families put down roots and create a place to call home during, and after, years of sacrifice and service.

But helping military families buy homes has never felt like “just business” to me and it never will.

Today, we remember the men and women who gave everything and never made it home.

May we honor them with gratitude, humility, and remembrance. 🇺🇸

…at least according to Rusty Gates 🦇

Having spent years as an Army spouse, I became really protective of military families. And honestly, for good reason.

Veterans are one of the most targeted groups in the mortgage industry. The amount of misleading mailers, fake urgency, bait-and-switch tactics, and fine print aimed at military families is wild.

People are trying to navigate huge financial decisions while being flooded with marketing designed to look official and create panic.

I care a lot about making sure people actually understand what they’re signing up for and what their options are. That part matters to me.

Mortgage vigilante era, apparently.

5.0 star review received on Experience.com for Julie Shank by Stephen L - Working with Julie was one of the best parts of our home buying experience. From the very beginning, she made us feel supported, informed, and genuinely cared for through every stage of the process. Buying a home can be overwhelming and emotional at times, especially with deadlines, underwriting, and all the moving parts involved, but Julie consistently showed up with professionalism, patience, and reassurance.

What stood out most to me was how responsive and dedicated she was. No matter how many questions we had or how stressful certain moments became, she always took the time to explain things clearly and make sure we understood our options. She never made us feel like just another transaction. It truly felt like she was invested in helping us succeed and get into our home the right way.

Julie worked incredibly hard behind the scenes to keep everything moving forward smoothly and on time. Her communication was excellent throughout the process, and she was proactive in solving problems before they became bigger issues. Having someone that knowledgeable and dependable in your corner makes a huge difference during such an important milestone.

Beyond being great at what she does, Julie is also just a kind and genuine person. You can tell she truly cares about the people she works with, and that level of care is rare. We always felt respected, heard, and supported throughout the entire experience.

I’m incredibly grateful for all the effort, time, and energy Julie put into helping us through this process. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, hardworking, knowledgeable, and compassionate to guide them through buying a home.

Carol’s always a hoot.

Most people are taught to sell assets to buy a home.

Wealthy buyers are taught something different.

This is one of the most misunderstood strategies in personal finance — and it has nothing to do with loopholes or luck.

It’s about leverage, taxes, and knowing your options.

Save this if you want to understand how money actually works.

Knowledge compounds too.
